Accessibility



Compliance Status

 

Society Social is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the broadest possible audience, regardless of ability. We believe the internet should be available and usable by everyone.

To that end, we aim to adhere to the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.2 (WCAG 2.2) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide range of disabilities, including blindness, motor impairments, visual impairment, and cognitive disabilities.

Our website uses an accessibility interface that allows visitors with specific disabilities to adjust the site's user interface to their personal needs. Additionally, an AI-based application runs in the background to continually optimize accessibility — remediating HTML, and adapting functionality for screen readers and keyboard navigation.

If you have questions or feedback, please reach out through our contact form or at accessibility@shopsocietysocial.com.

 


Screen Reader and Keyboard Navigation

 

Our website implements ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes, along with behavioral adjustments, so that visitors using screen readers can navigate and understand the site's functions. Screen reader users receive a prompt upon entering the site to activate a Screen-Reader Profile for optimized browsing.

Screen reader support includes:

  • Accurate form labels, descriptions for actionable icons (social, search, cart, etc.), validation guidance, and defined element roles (buttons, menus, modals)

  • Ongoing scanning of site images to provide meaningful ALT text where missing, including OCR-extracted text from images

  • Compatibility with JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack

  • Screen reader adjustments can be activated at any time via Alt+1

Keyboard navigation support includes:

  • Full site operability via Tab / Shift+Tab, arrow-key dropdown navigation, Esc to close menus, and Enter to trigger buttons and links

  • A content-skip menu available via Alt+2, or as the first focusable element when navigating by keyboard

  • Keyboard focus is automatically directed to pop-ups when triggered, and contained within them until dismissed

  • Shortcut keys: M (menus), H (headings), F (forms), B (buttons), G (graphics)

 

Disability Profiles Supported

 

  • Epilepsy Safe Profile — eliminates flashing/blinking animations and risky color combinations

  • Vision Impaired Profile — supports degrading eyesight, tunnel vision, cataracts, glaucoma, and other visual impairments

  • Cognitive Disability Profile — assistive features for autism, dyslexia, CVA, and related conditions

  • ADHD Friendly Profile — reduces distractions and noise to support focus

  • Blind Users Profile (Screen Readers) — compatibility with JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver, and TalkBack

  • Keyboard Navigation Profile (Motor-Impaired) — full site operability via keyboard and shortcut keys



Additional Adjustments Available

 

  • Font — size, family, spacing, alignment, and line height adjustments

  • Color — light, dark, inverted, and monochrome contrast profiles, plus multiple color-scheme options for titles, text, and backgrounds

  • Animations — one-click stop for videos, GIFs, and CSS transitions

  • Content highlighting — emphasis on links and titles, or highlighting of focused/hovered elements only

  • Audio muting — instant mute for the entire site

  • Dictionary support — Wikipedia/Wiktionary-linked search to help decipher unfamiliar words, phrases, or acronyms

  • Other tools — cursor color/size adjustment, printing mode, and virtual keyboard support



Browser and Assistive Technology Compatibility

 

We support the browsers and assistive technologies that make up the majority of the market, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera, and Microsoft Edge, alongside JAWS and NVDA screen readers on both Windows and Mac.
